Laundry: Crime Scene

This week the laundry became a crime scene as my toga outfit launched a vicious attack at my Alcatraz fancy dress.  The Defence (bright red-orange scarf pictured below) pleads “not guilty” but the evidence provided by The Prosecution in the form of newly dyed pink stripes is pretty concrete. Was it intentional or just plain …

My oh so glamorous life

And so passes yet another week in the oh so glamorous life of Beca.   A week of wandering spatulas (later found down the back of the tumble dryer), feeling about six while apologising to someone and some pretty amazing jitsu last Friday resulting in pain… nothing new (I should really learn not to hit people …

Hey, it’s OK

Waiting for the treasury to open this morning I bought my first magazine of 2013 and found this while flicking though; I’m pretty sure it was written for me.  A combination of rum, a bad knee and heels saw me flashing my underwear on Saturday night.  No-one noticed… at least that’s what I keep telling myself. * …

Hills, happiness and hair dye

After a weekend of exploring Brecon in the dark with nothing but the shape of the person a metre in front to guide myself, some minor geographical misplacements and the formation of some very amusing memories, I crashed out during a break this afternoon – lecture seats are actually rather comfortable! The weekend was amazing, …

Where’s Wally?

Sorry this one’s a little late; I’m still recovering (that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it) * * * Train hard, play hard.  That’s my motto for just about everything; admittedly my definition of playing hard isn’t quite the same as everyone else’ as I’m not a massive fan of drinking loads, but rest …

You’d think, being halfway through my university career, I’d know where I’m going by now.  Coates had other plans.  Multiple staircases (I needed the extra phys anyway) and three different entrances later I finally found C29.  Don’t ask me how I got there, lets just say I made a much better job of it when …

Finding God (again)

This is my second attempt at writing a blog post this evening; I’d nearly finished the first when I realised I was skirting around what I really wanted to say. – – – God is often a delicate issue.  Some people believe, some don’t and some sit on the fence which I would imagine to …

Retaining the will to live

It’s a feeling I’m sure you’re becoming all too familiar with this week, the will to live slowly seeping through your fingers with every page of text you read, every sentence you write.  Take heed guys, there is an end! Apparently. If you find it let me know. Not going to lie, this week hasn’t …

If I did new year’s resolutions…

The whole, ‘remembering how much I love my family and have missed them while at uni’ lasted a whole maybe, three days.  Then I remembered exactly why I enjoy uni and independence so much.  I might only be halfway through second year but I haven’t lived at home for nearly two years now, spending half …

So This Is Christmas

A time for all to find their inner child My body clock decided it was Christmas Day at 6am this morning; by 7am I was bouncing up and down the corridor with my youngest brother, racing down the stairs to sort the stack of presents (which has been accumulating under the tree for the past …
